President Donald Trump said Isis will be ‘gone by tonight’ and held up maps he claimed showed how the US has defeated the group in Iraq and Syria. Trump has previously announced the defeat Isis, but reports of continuing fighting between the extremist and US-backed forces in Syria have since emerged. With no signs of fighting on Wednesday, however, the long-running battle to retake the militants’ last outpost in eastern Syria appeared to have reached its conclusion.

Donald Trump says Isis will be ‘gone by tonight’ The complete fall of Baghouz would mark the end of the Islamic State group’s self-declared caliphate, which at its height stretched across large parts of Syria and Iraq. During his speech, Trump held up two maps of Syria – one covered in red representing territory held by the militant group when he was elected president in November 2016 and the other that had only a speck of red. ‘When I took over, it was a mess. They were all over the place – all over Syria and Iraq,’ Trump, who has said the US will keep 400 troops in Syria indefinitely, added.

But even after Baghouz’s fall, Isis maintains a scattered presence and sleeper cells that threaten a continuing insurgency. The militants have been putting up a desperate fight, their notorious propaganda machine working even on the brink of collapse. The battle for Baghouz has dragged on for weeks and the encampment had proven a major battleground, with tents covering foxholes and underground tunnels. The siege has also been slowed by the unexpectedly large number of civilians in Baghouz, most of them families of Isis members.

Ciyager Amed, an official with the Kurdish-led SDF, said they were searching for any Isis militants hiding in tunnels in a riverside pocket in the village of Baghouz. The SDF has not yet announced a victory over Isis. On Tuesday, the SDF seized control of the encampment held by Isis after hundreds of militants surrendered overnight, signalling the group’s collapse after months of stiff resistance.
